Mostly God's creations through my lens.
Sometimes old buildings and such.
Sometimes my own creations through hand knitting and needle felting.
And sometimes just life as it is happening.

Below is a Yellow Bellied Sapsucker.I am leaning toward it being a female,

because what little view of the chin and throat does not appear to be red.Look how she just blends in with the tree.

These are not the best photographs, but they are the best I have right now. Hopefully when the weather warms up and I can set up the blind closer to the tree (closer than the house) the Sapsucker will come down low on the tree like it did here so I can get some great photos.

Doesn't appear to be a juvenile because the head is so red.Also, the damage to the tree was not just this year.

Jimmy and I were sitting eating lunch on Monday, and he said the woodpecker was going at his tree again. Jimmy has been concerned about the tree and wondering why the woodpecker keeps going to the live tree. Thought they liked dead trees. Well, me being me, I grabbed the camera and knew immediately this was not the Red Bellied Woodpecker I had photographed earler.

About Me

I am a Christian wife, mother and grandmother. I have 2 grown married children, 3 grandsons, and one granddaughter. I have been a photographer over 40 years, receiving my first camera when I was 12 or 13 years old. I am always passionate about the craft that I am currently involved in. My husband tolerates my passions quite well, whether it is my photography, stained glass or knitting. I started digital photography in 2007, and started selling my photography at that time. I began selling my knitting in 2009, and needle felting in 2010. I began designing knit patterns in 2009, but did not begin selling them until 2011. I also enjoy flower gardening, birding and x-stitch. Leedra's Photos For Fun sometimes shows these other interest. Photography By Leedra is always my photography, but it is not posted as often as Leedra's Photos For Fun. Heirloom Goods blog is about what is going on at Heirloom Goods, not just my creations, it sometimes includes Jimmy's creations.
